Tattoos have long ceased to be taboo, and in the sports world they have become commonplace faster than many thought. As for Latin American soccer players, they have not been left behind, putting ink on their bodies for different reasons or for the simple pleasure of art. However, things don’t always turn out as expected, that’s why at JefeBet we leave you with a list of the 5 worst tattoos of Latin soccer players, who knew?
5.- Sergio ”Kun” Agüero – Worst tattoos of latin footballers
Sergio Agüero’s tattoo on his right forearm could not be said to be entirely ugly, but the story behind it is beyond belief. According to the Argentinean soccer player himself, at the time of getting the tattoo, he did not know what its meaning was. He only knew that it was written in Tengwar language –the artificial language of the Elves in the Lord of the Rings. But do you want to know what’s worse? Agüero has never seen a movie of the trilogy written by J.R.R. Tolkien. He would later learn that the deed says “Kun Agüero”.
4.- Erik Lamela – Worst tattoos of Latin soccer players
I don’t think many of us have a problem with dog tattoos, but if we are going to honor them, please let it be in a good way. On his left thigh tattoo, Argentinean Erik Lamela wanted to make a tribute to his pet, but it was super blurry and makes his furry look like a sad dog. Surely his dog would not have been at all grateful to be on the list of the worst tattoos of soccer players.
3.- Mauricio Pinilla – Worst tattoos of Latin soccer players
Mauricio Pinilla has been a tattoo lover since he was 14 years old, as he himself has confessed in several interviews. Several of them are worthy of admiration, but we do not quite understand what he wanted to do with a trident. We assume that it is flaming, and it comes out of a kind of strong heart and reaches the neck of the former footballer. Pinilla had many hits in the net and with his body, but this was not one of them.
2.- Eder Militao – Worst tattoos of Latin soccer players
Eder Militao took advantage of one of his days off from Real Madrid to continue filling his body with ink, and boy, did he do it. The Brazilian player hired two tattoo artists to simultaneously draw the face of a Christ, a baby Jesus and a Virgin Mary, as well as the word “Gratitude”, all over his chest and abdomen. Of course, it’s not wrong to express religious beliefs, but it doesn’t hurt to do it in a more subtle and less outlandish way than the defender’s huge tattoo.
1.- Andrés D’Alessandro – Worst tattoos of Latin soccer players
While we have seen religious tattoos, tattoos of gratitude and remembrance, Andres D’Alessandro wanted to break the mold and what a way. The Argentine soccer player tops our list of the worst tattoos of Latin athletes after in 2015, on the left side of his abdomen, he drew a portrait of himself and the word ”D’Ale”, referring to his last name and how he is known by many fans. Not only is the charismatic midfielder somewhat self-centered, but he also has a rather bad taste in tattoos.
